How many liters can the fuel tank of a Volkswagen Santana hold?
1 Answers
The fuel tank capacity of the Volkswagen Santana is 52.8 liters, as officially announced. The Santana uses 92-octane gasoline, with a fuel consumption of 5.5 to 5.6L per 100 kilometers. A full tank can cover a distance of 942 to 960 kilometers. During daily driving, it is necessary to pay attention to the remaining fuel level in the tank. The fuel level is usually monitored through the fuel gauge inside the car. If there are no other issues, the fuel level will be accurately reflected on the gauge. The fuel gauge typically has 5 to 6 segments, and it is advisable to refuel when there are only 2 segments left to avoid running out of fuel midway. During actual refueling, the amount of fuel may exceed the marked capacity. This is because the fuel tank capacity marked by the manufacturer is measured from the bottom of the tank to the safety level, and there is additional space from the safety level to the tank opening. This space is designed to allow for fuel expansion due to temperature increases without causing overflow. If fuel is added up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual amount of fuel may exceed the marked tank capacity.
